Real Madrid is clearly more talented and a better team..

IMO there are 3 teams there are above the rest in terms of quality: Real Madrid, Barcelona and FC Bayern.

Man Utd obviously has a good team, but I can see Juve matching them even in terms of quality. The games should be very well matched. Real Madrid is in another level, IMO.

So I'm supporting Man Utd here. They seem to be completely beatable. I'd rather face them than face Real Madrid.

Damn, I think Real would trash us.

Ronaldo is the all-round most complete player I've ever seen playing the game. It's a pleasure to watch him play.

Ha :D

Didn't think there were actually serious people in this world who would prefer Ronaldo to Messi :p
You'd find a lot of people on this forum, to say the least.

C. Ronaldo is the more complete player of the two. Notice Messi when he's playing for Argentina, with morons such as Cambiasso and Tevez around him. Not the same impact as he has with Barca. He's a beast, don't get me wrong, but one of the main reasons he's so fantastic at Barcelona is because he's playing in great understanding with Xavi and Iniesta. Superb player, Messi, but I just think C. Ronaldo is overall a better player.

Ronaldo is also the better team player. Messi got his whole team working for him.

I know you are too young to remember the Brazilian Ronaldo but what Messi does was previously mastered by him. Too bad football games coverage was not as good as it is today. Some of skills Cris Ronaldo show on the pitch are unique.

I don't think Messi would have the same impact in Serie A he does in La Liga. Don't get me wrong, he'd be a star still, but I think Ronaldo would outperform Messi here. Ronaldo would suit this league well.

real might be the better team on paper, but man u is the more compact, experienced, and dangerous of the 2 imo

and these are skills that arent obvious to the untrained eye, some of the stuff he can do running full speed most cant do with time on their hand

I grew up watching Ronaldo, and almost became an Inter fan because of him.

You can say that Ronaldo has better technique than Messi, but Messi is twice the player Ronaldo will ever become.
